Probably you are looking on internet:
Things to do in Rio; Where to visit in Brazil? Places to visit in Brazil;
Cautions to visit Rio; thing to do a trip to Brazil or Rio and so on. But
before buy your tickets to Rio or Brazil, please you must read it or if you
know someone that is thinking to do, please share this post with him or her.
The report from the NGO Brazilian Forum of
Public Security comparing the period of 2011 and 2015
shows that in Brazil 278,839 people were
murdered against 256,124 killed by the war in Syria.
If you're thinking, go to Brazil for any
reason I think you need to re-evaluate this decision. I'm from Rio de Janeiro
and one thing that I can say for you is that my state is bankrupted consequence
of the corruption and bad public administration. After a lot of money spent for
the Olympics in 2016 the state of Rio is living with public hospitals; police
stations; schools running without basic resources to offer basic services to
the population. For example, the police are asking for donation, not money but
paper reams; there is no money for gas and even to repair the police cars. Some
hospitals canceled surgeries because there is no money to buy basic medical
supplies and the public employees are not receiving their salaries. Yes, state policemen;
firefighters; teachers and even the retired staff are being affected.
Based on an account on Twitter called:
"Where is happening shooting?" (Onde tem tiroteio) between November,
1st and the 4th of 2016, Rio de Janeiro had 56 shootings. But is not only
shootings that are happening in Rio we have a lot of teenagers that acting as
pickpockets and during the traffic jams gangs heavily armed go car by car
stolen and threatening all those are in the cars, robberies also are very
common on the public transport.
Another page on Facebook called "Rio
of Dirt" (Rio de nojeira) has a lot of videos of
teenagers stealing people on the streets of the downtown of the Rio de Janeiro.
It's very common.
Another thing that could be fatal in the
city of Rio is if you get lost. You can end up in a favela and be killed by
drug dealers shooting your car. In 2015 a couple of seniors were attacked
because, by mistake, following the GPS instruction they put the wrong address
and ended up in a favela. The woman was killed and her husband with the car
with a lot of bullet hole survived the attack leaving the place. Everyone is a
hostage of the violence.
Other thing is that some places the rules
are made by the drug dealers and there is no respect by laws is like a parallel
power that run the country.
Rio de Janeiro city is beautiful and the
Cariocas (name given to those who is born in the city of Rio) are persons that
is cool, but unfortunately the city and the state of Rio is a total chaos right
now and I don't think the things will be good soon.
Every day someone is dying; is being
injured or is living in a place that is happening a shooting in Rio or Brazil.
I highly recommend that you do not come to Rio or Brazil. Live in Rio or Brazil
is like living giving a ride to the death we never know when and where the
things can happen. Even at home the population is not safe.
